Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

My fiance and I saw Joe for pre-martial counseling. We had an on and off relationship prior to the engagement. I learned how my behavior was effecting the relationship through counseling sessions with Joe. However, be prepared to feel as if at Marriage Boot Camp. Joe can be harsh and several times, left feeling worst then prior to appt. I asked numerous times how to move on from past, what should I do? I was not given any direction other than told -let it go. We were doing telehealth visits due to Covid and few times during the sessions, Joe opened his mail! I found it to be very unprofessional. Despite the few ways Joe helped us, I cannot say I would recommend him. I know other counselors who aren't as aggressive and kinder approach.

Mr. Follette is a very knowledgeable and understanding individual. We came to him in a very dark place in our lives and I’m happy to say that now we are thriving as a family thanks to Joe’s teaching and tools. I would highly recommend to anyone no matter your situation.

RIP OFF!! He tells you when you first reach out he is in your care provider ( yes I know I should of checked with my insurance but like a fool I trusthed this man as I was going through a very rough time in my marriage) We went to him for several months I paid him out of pocket over $1500 and i was thinking my insurance was covering most of the cost but he was charging for STUPID little tests!! What a joke!! He charged my husband $500 and me $200 for the exact program RUN!! He is not honest!!

I am a complicated person and Mr. Follette sessions help me understand things from another prospective. My children also meet with Mr. Follette; this has helped with understanding in my home. He is resourceful and helpful. I feel comfortable in my sessions and my children do as well!

Joe is a great marriage counselor and definitely knows the ins and outs of a good healthy marriage. He has shown us how to communicate more effectively which is the core of a successful marriage. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to truly save their marriage. I must say my husband and I have gotten along better in the past two months than when we said 'I do'.

When I came to Mr. Follette I was at a fragile place in my life. Having recently separated from my husband with no job, and a strained relationship with my children; I had low self-esteem and no life direction Mr. Follette's wholistic approach to counseling guided me through this difficult time, helping me to feel better about myself, develop a positive relationship with my children, and to take back control of my life.

Joe is a great man! He cares and wants the best for you. He has opened me and shown me things about myself i didnt really notice or see. I would recommend him to anyone! If you want a life change and a Godly outlook you must see Joe. After 26 years in the military i know good men of courage and he is one. I am on this healing path with a real person and a man i can believe in. So don't wait or look anymore!! See Joe now and lifes promised is going to happen. Eric
